# GAP BETWEEN REAR SEAT BACK AND CUSHION AT BITE LINE

#### MODELS/YEARS 1990 TORONADO AND TROFEO

Some 1990 Toronados and Trofeos may experience a condition where the rear seat back and cushion have a gap between them at the bite line. To repair this condition use the following procedure:

1. Remove rear seat back.

2. Remove seat back cover.

3. Allow for the crushed condition at bottom of bun to relax from original assembly. Steam could be applied to crushed area to hasten the process. If steam is applied, dry the bun thoroughly before replacing cover.

4. Trim cording from binding material beginning at center of seat back (at armrest) to 4 inches up each side. Refer to Figure 1.

5. Sew new typar or equivalent binding material, 3-4 inches wide, onto original typar in trimmed area.

6. Replace cover. Take special Gare when reattaching cover around bottom of cushion. Pull cover just tight enough and roll binding material as necessary to provide a snug fit with minimal crushing of the foam bun.
